Abstract: A snow removal system. The snow removal system includes a housing having an inlet disposed on a front side thereof, wherein the inlet is in fluid communication with a first chamber. An auger is disposed transversely across the first chamber, wherein the auger is operably connected to a motor within the housing. The auger rotates about a longitudinal axis thereof to mash snow and transport the mashed snow into a second chamber when the motor is actuated. The second chamber includes a primary heating element therein, the heating element designed to heat snow within the second chamber to produce steam. An outlet is disposed through a sidewall of the second chamber, wherein the outlet can emit steam from the second chamber.
Abstract: A hand-propelled self-contained movable electrical snow-melting device which has a frame on which is mounted an enclosure formed by a bottom heat-conductive plate and an upper cover. An electrical heater is positioned within the enclosure and a portable electrical power supply is supported by the device and is connected to the heater.
Abstract: Apparatus defined by an elongate truck body with a cab and truck bed housing overlying elongate truck frame plate. A forwardly oriented chute with an impeller drive at a forwardmost end of the chute directs snow upwardly through the chute by use of a drive belt into a receiving tank. The receiving tank includes a plurality of heater plates arranged in an angular relationship overlying the tank adjacent the uppermost end of the drive belt. The truck bed includes an auxiliary pump for directing fluid outwardly relative to the tank and further includes a drive motor for driving a generator to operate the heater plates, auxiliary pump, and heater unit positioned rearwardly within the truck bed housing with the heater unit underlying an apertured floor of the truck frame plate to direct heat therethrough to effect completion of snow removal underlying the truck body during its traverse over a road surface to be cleared of snow.
